FAQs
Are these shoes true to size?

Can I put these in the washing machine?

Are the insoles removable?
Yes, the EVA insole is designed to be removable if you need to use custom orthotics.
Is this a unisex model?
While some sizing is listed as male, the Manteca 4 series offers various unisex options. Always check the specific size and fit description for your chosen pair.
How do I protect the suede?
Use a waterproof protective spray suitable for suede to create a barrier against moisture and environmental pollutants.
What makes the Manteca 4 different from the original?
The version 4 has been remastered with a finer construction, a bolder toe profile, and upgraded internal padding for better performance.
Troubleshooting
Tongue slides to the side during walking
Ensure the laces are threaded through the integrated centering loop on the tongue to lock it in place.
Visible dirt on suede material
Use a specialized suede eraser or soft-bristled brush. Do not use water, as this can leave spots on suede.
Outsole losing grip over time
Clear debris or pebbles trapped in the Pill Pattern grooves using a small brush or toothpick to restore full traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Manteca 4 trainers, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: For leather versions, wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth. For suede variants, use a dry brush specifically designed for suede to lift dirt and maintain the nap.
- Moisture Protection: Apply a leather or suede protector spray before the first use to repel stains and light water exposure.
- Storage: Keep your shoes in a cool, dry area away from direct sunlight to prevent the leather from cracking or the colours from fading.
- Lacing: Adjust the laces firmly but comfortably to utilize the tongue centering system effectively without restricting circulation.
